Is Rally Yellow a metallic color? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just a quick one I was reading a post earlier that stated rally yellow is a metallic colour, think it was on a bumblebee colour vs rally yellow thread.

Anyway my question, is Rally yellow metallic or is it a straight colour?

I have no way of seeing one of these in the flesh in the UK so thought id ask here as its the colour I want to order.

PS apologies for the spelling of colour even if we do spell it correctly ha ha.

A quick google search pulled up this post. It would appear that there is no metallic fleck in Rally Yellow.

Also, spell check says "colour" is incorrect and I agree, so :P

Edit: How do we not have a smiley for that?!? A travesty I tell ya!

ha ha indeed I believe you spell it color lol. I thought it was a straight colour but would have been a bonus if it were metallic.

Any idea what the code is, I may get my mate who runs a spray shop to do a spary out card for me.

This and this is the best I can find. I know nothing about paint codes so I dunno if it helps you.

I saw one up close at my dealer that was already sold. There is no metallic in the paint. It's the colour I am getting as well.

The two samples I saw up-close at the local dealer where both RY...a 2LT then a 1LT...the yellow was straight/solid and bright...no evidence of any metallic in the color. RY is one of my favorites...I initially hated it but it has grown on me above others.

My car is rally yellow and it is not metallic. Hope this helps.

No metallic, same as cobalt.

oh im an idiot, but what exactly does it mean when you say that it has metallic in the color..... what is metallic color? does that mean it shines more or something?

2010SSRSM6 · 07-26-2009, 07:27 PM

Metalic color has a hint of metal flake in the paint to give it a shimmering effect.
